SPECIAL SITUATIONS
DO NOT WELD OR CUT containers or materials which previously
had been in contact with hazardous substances unless they are
properly cleaned. This is extremely dangerous.
DO NOT WELD OR CUT painted or plated parts unless special
precautions with ventilation have been taken. They can release
highly toxic fumes or gases.
Additional precautionary measures
PROTECT compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat,
mechanical shocks, and arcs; fasten cylinders so they cannot fall.
BE SURE cylinders are never grounded or part of an
electrical circuit.
REMOVE all potential fire hazards from welding area.
ALWAYS HAVE FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT READY FOR
IMMEDIATE USE AND KNOW HOW TO USE IT.

• Turn the input power OFF at the
disconnect switch or fuse box before
attempting to connect or disconnect
input power lines, output cables or
control cables.
• Only qualified personnel should perform this
installation.
• Do not touch metal portions of the Activ8X™ work clip
when the welding power source is on.
• Do not attach the work clip to the wire feeder.
• Connect the work clip directly to the work, as close as
possible to the welding arc.
• Turn power off at the welding power source before
disconnecting the work clip from the work.
• Only use on power sources with open circuit voltages
less than 110 VDC.
CAUTION
High Frequency Interference Protection
Locate the Activ8X™ away from radio controlled machinery.
